In his work Professor Oberth has always let himself be guided by this question: "What can I contribute to the benefit of mankind?" After a long life of achievement and reflection, Professor Oberth confirms to us once more in his latest book Primer For Those Who Would Govern that the problems of mankind are not to be solved in a peaceful and sensible manner by any one country on its own, but can be brought to a solution, satisfactory for all, only on a level which transcends national borders.
These writings represent a challenge to each and every one of us. It is a challenge to attempt a new dimension of thinking, one based on the realization that we, the people of this earth, not only have a common origin, but also must find a common future.
In deep gratitude for his life-long work for the benefit of mankind, we salute Professor Oberth on the occasion of his 95th birthday on June 25, 1989 as the greatest genius of the 20th century.
